From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Ricing Linux (lemmy.world)

I've been using linux for about 6 months now and recently been using arch as my main. I've done some customzations like changing fonts, background, keybinds, etc. But I really want to actually customize like the behaviour of apps, cool animations.

Are there any links, videos, post or anything that is beginner friendly of ricing Linux?

Edit: I use Gnome for now

i personally call it "theming" or "customizing" since these are quite descriptive. pretty sure "modding" is more often used in the context of gaming

Theming seems more relevant and specific than modding/customizing👍
